Abstract

Pain in Osteoid osteoma has always been treated with Non Steroid Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) with satisfactory results. Recent researches reveal that pain is related to cyclooxigenase-2 (COX-2) secretion. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the pain response in patients with Osteoid osteoma after the administration of a selective COX-2 inhibitor (Etoricoxib).
